Protests erupted in Kurdish neighborhoods of Aleppo following calls by the Ashrafiya and Sheikh Maqsoud councils, as residents challenged Public Security checkpoints despite warning shots fired to disperse them. Demonstrators are demanding an end to the blockade.
Local sources claim 15 people were injured in the Kurdish Shekh Maqsoud and Ashrafia neighborhoods during protests against interim government forces, following the closure of the entrances to these neighborhoods.
🚨 URGENT: Heavy artillery is being used tonight against civilians in Sheikh Maqsoud and Ashrafieh, Aleppo — over 50 people reportedly wounded.
We call on @FCDOGovUK to act immediately to help end the bombardment and lift the siege.

BREAKING: Kurdish neighborhoods of Sheikh Maqsoud & Ashrafieh in Aleppo have been sealed off by Turkish-backed Sultan Suleiman Shah (Amshat) & Hamza (Hamzat) Divisions — both implicated in massacres in Syria’s coast & Sweida.
Since the SDF withdrew to facilitate integration into the Syrian Government, only local Asayish police remain. Residents — including Christians & Yazidis — are extremely fearful.
And now reports of heavy weapons entering adjacent neighborhoods.
The U.S. & international community must press Turkey & Damascus to withdraw these divisions. How does this build trust for integrating all of NE Syria into the state?
🇸🇾⚡- BREAKING: HTS-led Syrian government forces and allied Bedouin tribes have launched an attack against the Kurdish SDF-held neighbourhood of 'Sheikh Maqsoud' in Aleppo
According to the Syrian Ministry of Defense, the Syrian army has 'no intention' of waging war against the SDF, and says the clashes are a result of Kurdish provocations.
I spoke today with my friend @JanLipavsky, the Czech Minister of Foreign Affairs. We discussed the events and the situation in Syria. I emphasized the need to ensure the safety of the Kurdish minority in Syria, who are still facing attacks. The Kurds fought bravely against ISIS and the international community must ensure their protection from attacks by radical Islamists.
Hileli ve sahte bir zaferin sarhoşluğuyla, lüks sarayının balkonundan gırtlağını yırtarcasına iftira, tehdit ve hakaretlerini sürdüren yaşlı kral ve karşısında yalanlardan, hazdan başı dönmüş bir linç güruhu, hep beraber “idam” diye bağırıyor.
Olay, bir zamanların Fransa’sında geçmiyor. Sene 2023, yer Ankara.
“Siz benim ceketimi bile asamazsınız” diyeceğim ama buna bile değmezsiniz. Sadece şunu söyleyeyim:
Ben, adını aldığım Kudüs fatihi büyük Kürt Komutan Selahaddin Eyyubi'nin torunuyum. Günü geldiğinde, hepinize adil davranacağıma söz veriyorum.
What does it take to get the US to condemn #Turkey? I fear these attacks - with impunity - are creating a dangerously emboldened Turkey.
If an attack on a convoy with US personnel is not crossing the line, what is?

Local and international parties condemn the heinous crime committed by a Turkish-backed #SNA faction against #Kurds in the town of #Jindires, northwest #Syria, on #Newroz eve. #Turkey

Newroz, roja nû ye. Ji bo neteweyên Rojhilata Navîn sembola azadî û bidawîkirina zordariyê ye.
Hêviya me ew e newroza 2023'an bibe newroza aṣîtî, hevgirtin û çareseriyê.
Newroza we pîroz be!
